"If it’s something your grandma loves, there’s a good chance I’m into it too. Knitting? Check. Crocheting? Absolutely. Gardening and canning vegetables? You bet. I’ve even taken on an active role in the neighborhood watch, keeping an eye on things with a crochet hook in one hand and garden shears in the other. There’s something wonderfully grounding about these ‘grandma-approved’ hobbies—they bring a sense of nostalgia and simple joy that adds warmth and a bit of quirky humor to my days. Beyond the laughter these hobbies bring, they offer a welcome balance to the demands of my professional life. Each stitch, every jar of canned veggies, and every planted seed is a small reminder to slow down, appreciate the process, and find joy in everyday moments. These traditions keep me connected to the past, remind me of the value of patience, and make life all the richer."
